Accord euro or sportivo?

[mtbrider]

At the moment I have both a Sportivo and Euro 09. The Sportivo is a fantastic car for what it is. And VVTL-i is very adictive. The power rises dramatically at 6200rpm when the valves lift. The Honda really is a different car and I would campare it more to the wife's Grande Camry.

The South African built Sportivo (there was only around 3000 imported)definitely has a 60 litre tank as well. I usually achieve 550 to 600 k's per tank. Based on the fuel use computer in the Honda I don't think I will achieve the same but then the Honda is not a 1.8 litre and it still needs to run in.

The Sportivo is a fast car (again for an NA 1.8l) but you need to know how to drive it as if you come off lift between gears you will be slow.

I need to get off my butt and sell the Sportivo but it is the only car I have ever had that has attached itself to me that I really don't want to see it go.

So could I beat myself driving the Honda in the Sportivo. Well yes every time but then again I did buy an auto Euro. Which car would I pick to drive any distance over 100k's - the Honda everytime.

yeah very tru, if u do not change gears properly u will either crunch or get out of lift, u haven to drive shift and stay in lift then it goes hard hehe. i agree if u wanna drive for FUN the sportivo BUT the EURO is a more all rounder, luxury relaxing, still has v tec sunroof etc, as silly as it sounds a sunroof was very important to me lol thats 1 massive downside to the sportivo, although their r so going around with them which i rate

ufortunately also for the sportivo is that the resale value has dropped quite a bit. not entirely sure why the resale value has dropped so much for a decent car
